brake/clutch fluid?

i have a gm chevy cobalt repair manual and it says that the clutch and brake fluid share the same reservoir. does that mean you mix brake and clutch fluid in the same reservoir? o.0

yes, the brake fluid goes both to your braking system and your clutch, so just use dot 3 brake fluid and make sure your brake reservoir is full.
